[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1887039, member: 56379"] Computers with both integrated & dedicated GPU's (especially laptop/notebook computers) have always been designed to only use the integrated GPU for less stressful tasks...and the dedicated GPU used for more stressful process's. Been this way for at least 10-12 years (maybe longer). If you're using proper diagnostic methods to assess the use of the iMac's integrated GPU (when it's used & when it's not being used). Consider that maybe your individual computer has an issue. And if this is the case...take it to your nearest Apple store and have it looked at. Nick [/QUOTE]
